DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Sink repair at your home in Annitsford

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Whether it’s chips on the rim or front edge and knocks from hair straighteners, we can usually put it right, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Questions from Annitsford

How do I get a price for sink repair in Annitsford?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your NE23 postcode.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you cover Annitsford?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Annitsford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
